Very poor., I was afraid to take any pictures
Cons:

Bad location, no one was in the office, you had to call , thr room was unlocked, he said go to your room the door was opened, the key was inside the room. The microwave, was not plugged in, I plugged it in, did not work, I had to call back to report this, about 15 min. Someone came and tried it. He had to get another one. There was no air-conditioned in the room. There was a ceiling fan, with the only light in the room. No table lights at all, it look like the door was kicked in.

Pros:

I’ll be asking for my money back.

I did not feel safe staying there.

There was not a person on site to actually check in.

There was a key left in the room.

The door had a push button lock, and that was it.

I could see light all the way around the door and it would not have taken anything to actually push the door open with the pathetic lock.

The motel has not been updated since the 1970s at best and they were scuffs all around the room on the wall and could not even be bothered to be painted.

I would not recommend this hotel for anyone unless it is a last resort

Worked out well for us
Pros:

We were in the area for a ski trip which was a last minute addition, so accomodations were scarse. The Motel had rooms at a reasonable price. We had fairly low expectations. Everything was fine. A few things could be improved: 1. Need better curtains for the window that faces out front due to a very bright porch lamp.

2. Need a curtain for the bathroom window. We had to place a folder to block the view!

3. It was very hot in the room! Good for this winter weather if course, but was hard to sleep. There was no way to control the temperature. We opened the window for the second night and it made it less secure but more tolerable.

Pros:

Not clean. Wouldn't have stayed given another choice. But baby was over driving and we needed to stop. You get what you pay for and even then I think it was too much. No front desk. Had to call for check in and check out. Felt very wrong to stay. Will not be returning.

I was well pleased with the facilities. I slept very well every night, which is a rarity.
Pros:

I do a Fall Foliage Trip every year. I hit nature sites every day. Some can be as far away as one hundred and twenty miles away, as was Harpers Ferry National Historical Park. I always try to pick a central location to all the sites that I will be visiting. The Mountaineer Motel was a good pick. I was pleased with the room, the location, and the amenities. Wi-Fi service was very good, which is always very important to me. If I were to ever repeat a visit into this area for a Fall Foliage Trip, I would stay here again.

Absolutely the worst
Pros:

Building should be condemned as unfit for human habitation. There was no heating. Bed was a ultra soft mattress on the floor. In my 82 years this is by far the worst hotel I have ever had the misfortune to experience and pay $110 for the privilege.

Great Fall Get-away!
Pros:

we were traveling to enjoy the fall scenery in the mountains. The Mountaineer Motel was perfect for our stay. It provided a place for rest as we traveled through the mountains.

Pros:

It is a very simple motel and the property is quite old. But the owner is friendly and does his best. It is solid for a night or two to a fair price.

Poor
Pros:

While this is not the best review, ultimately, it provided comfortable beds (no bugs) and a night of sleep. Good price. There is no carpet to trap creepy crawlies. It does not match pictures in the least.

Cons:

No AC, no chain lock on door. No bedside light or plug. Behind dresser dirty. Sink had soap scum, shower curtain maybe not clean (water spots between folds).
Outside could use clean up (weeds very tall, trash present)

Pros:

It’s a basic place. Sheets and towels were clean, bathroom tub and sink clean. Sure,the place could use a lot of TLC but the basics are there. Close to ski areas (within 40 min). We would suggest: some ability to control the heat, and more breathable mattress covers. The plastic cover gets very hot at night…beyond that we didn’t encounter anything we didn’t expect based on the hotel rating.
